What is The 2654 Project?
Hi! We are Matt and Kristen Scott and we began THE 2654 PROJECT in 2010 as a business to house our art forms of photography, music, and carpentry.
Our philosophy is simple: be inspired by others, share real life experiences, care deeply for people, work hard, find adventure in the ordinary, and create. THE 2654 PROJECT is how we began to blend all of these ideas and create through the mediums of photography, music, and carpentry.
Over the last 13 years, Kristen’s photography business has grown and become the main focus of our business. You can read more about her photography here.
Matt is currently working for a non-profit ministry, but continues to create music and hone his carpentry skills with beautiful furniture. You can email him at matthewedwardscott@gmail.com to learn more about his song-writing, his current 90’s country band, and to see his carpentry portfolio.
Matt and Kristen currently living in Old Town Bluffton, SC with their 5 year old son, Emerson, and 3.5 year old daughter, Ashton.
Why 2654?
Those were the numbers of our first address as a married couple. No really, it’s true! Ha!
We were married in 2007 and spent our first year of married life in a quaint, white cottage on Ralston Road in Mobile, AL. The four black numbers on that bright, red door read 2654. It was there that we began creating art together. We thought it would be special to name our business after the place it originated!
When we moved to Bluffton and Kristen’s photography really began to grow, we thought about changing the name to something more specific. But before we knew it, The 2654 Project name caught on like wildfire and it felt too unique and fun to change.
